[Mediawiki-l] Updating to 1.8.2

[Allen Emory]

I am upgrading my 1.6.7 to 1.8.2

followed the instructions (I think) when I run the update.php script I 
get

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or 
`T_VAR' or `'}'' in 
/Library/WebServer/Documents/wiki/includes/Exception.php on line 139

???

any help would be appreciated.
